UA MEPN 2017

[az827]

It's never too early to start talking! I'll be applying this fall for the 2017 cohort. Who else is applying? Are there any current or recent alumni that can give their insight on the program? What will the interview questions be like?

Hi! I will be applying for this summer 2017 entry. I am hoping for the Tucson location. I selected Tucson preferred on my application. I have a 3.6 GPA for prerequisites and a 3.4 for my "Last 60" GPA. I sit for the HESI this Saturday, the day before the application is to be submitted. Everyone messaging on this board appears to have really great GPAs and HESI scores. I hope I can make the cut! Good luck to everyone!!

I applied with a HESI score: 93.5

Overall GPA: 3.87

Prerequisite GPA: 3.78

I am impatiently waiting for an answer.

Hello Future MEPN'ers. I'm currently in the MEPN program, in terms of interview questions, be prepared to answer why you want to be a nurse, a moral dilemma you were in, ethical problem you encountered, words to describe yourself and a nurse.

Thank you FNKA!

Has anyone heard anything?

[Hhoward92]

Nope. I'm thinking it will be anytime in the next three weeks. I've been neurotically checking my email.

Has everyone submitted their fingerprint application? I'm out-of-state and was a little confused about the fingerprinting process. I know fingerprinting must be done before you can interview. I called the school and they mailed me a fingerprint card and application to get it done and sent back. I hope this doesn't interfere with receiving an interview soon.

[dancer24ish, BSN, RN]

I haven't heard anything from the school at all

when did you apply and when did you get an email or notification about fingerprinting

[Nurse_Nae, BSN, RN]

I applied in December. I didn't get an email. I contacted the school inquiring about it. On the website. I looked at the admission guide at the very bottom there's information about the fingerprint clearance card. http://www.nursing.arizona.edu/sites/default/files/uploads/admission_guide_mepn_2016oct.pdf

Hi all! I submitted my application on January 14, and I just found this page. I emailed the program immediately after my submission because I hadn't received my confirmation number, and I got an email back saying "you will get notification from us via email about your interview in early February." I also was contacted today because there was a problem accessing my HESI score, so I sent them my score report from Evolve. That's all I've heard since submission but I am also anxiously checking my email!

Aspiringpracticioner, how long did it take you to get the card in the mail after you emailed them? I totally forgot about this too and I'm kind of panicking. I can drive to Yuma and get it done, but it is a 2.5 hour trip, so I'm hoping to avoid it.
